Grecotel Lux Me White Palace

As you might expect from the name, the Grecotel Lux Me White Palace relies on a pared back colour palette when sketching out your perfect beach holiday, but this brilliant white all-inclusive resort is anything but one dimensional. Swim straight out from your suite into a sparkling seafront pool, dance the night away as the ouzo flows in old Rethymnon, and dine in a different setting each day with six fantastic restaurants.

Restaurants And Bars

Dining at the White Palace is a real treat, with six different restaurants, along with light bites by the pool and late night snacks to tide you over between meals! Flagship restaurant The White benefits from an elegant, adults only ambience, with under-12s not permitted, and lays on sublime tasting menus celebrating French, Italian and Greek cuisine. Other enticing options include the à la carte Asian fine dining of Asia White, the Mediterranean buffet restaurant Ventanas Il Mar, and the delicious Greek specialities at the beachfront Tavernaki. Those with a sweet tooth will find themselves inexorably drawn to the Gelateria, saving some room of course for the Patisserie and Chocolaterie. There are four bars, including a chilled out beach bar and family pool bar, and the hotel can arrange a romantic private dinner by the beach if you’re celebrating a special occasion.
